Both England and Brazil’s football federations have announced equal pay for the country’s national men and women’s teams.
The two countries join the likes of Australia, Norway and New Zealand in offering equal pay for its national football players, regardless of whether they’re male or female.
England’s Football Association (FA) said it has been paying men and women equally since the start of the year, while Brazil’s players have reportedly been paid the same rate since March.
The latest move from Brazil’s footballing federation will see equality between the women’s team, whether it be Marta, Formiga and Leticia Santos, and the men’s team, with players like Neymar, Gabriel Jesus and Roberto Firmino.
The decision will see teams in future World Cup tournaments earn the same money, as well as those representing the country at the Olympics
